I hate to disillusion you, but this is normal behavior for our youth. Yes. Normal behavior for college kids. But American soldiers fighting a war against terrrorism in Islamic coutries do not have the unlimited luxury of acting like college kids. Our soldiers deserve relaxation. But they must remember that they are not at Florida State. They are in the middle east, home of the birka.

"Yes. Normal behavior for college kids. But American soldiers fighting a war.."

And what demographic is fighting that war?
College kids.

Then be prepared to raise your standards for enlistment and probably quadruple military personel costs to get the kind of mature soldier with that much discipline, something we have never had, or particularly wanted, before.
A PC military, how precious.
